Abbott Elementary Season 3 Episodes 7 and 8 Recap

[00:00:00] I have the elementary season 3 episode 7, Librarian and season 3 episode 8 panel our

[00:00:23] overbook class is back in session here at recapkickback.com it's me, Shepel your host here talk taking you through the next two episodes of Abit Elementary while we're in this brief abit hiatus I felt like we need to give you something and so with me of course per usual the head principal here at the recap kickback it's geoworthy geow what's up oh my god I have had the craziest week of my life so I'm so happy that now I get to sit down

[00:00:53] and talk about a show that brings me so much joy and so much happiness. Shepel though I have to ask after I just watched this last episode when are we doing a podcasters versus fans basketball game I just feel like that's something that we need to consider.

[00:01:13] You know watching the players in this episode being you know that Gregory seems to be taking it very seriously and everybody else was just kind of there I don't know I'm not very competitive you might not know this about me but I'm a vibes guy

[00:01:29] you're literally what are you telling me you're not competitive. I'm ambitious but I don't play stuff I don't think I can win and so although I think I would do great in the podcast the basketball game I'm like I like I'd be vibing out too hard I was I was very much enjoying seeing them in this role you know seeing Gregory stress about it seeing Barbara playing her heart out and also scoring on the wrong basket how do you think we do in that game I don't know okay so it depends with the lineup because if we're doing like

[00:01:58] R.H.A.P. versus recap kickback I think recap kickback got it yeah we got it. We got it. Now for the podcasters in general versus fans I feel like we need to pick out the fans like I don't know I feel like that could be our undoing right there and I'm not sure if and this is also just not equating to the fact that I am not personally good at that.

[00:02:28] I'm not really good at basketball but like I do have the confidence that like I could at least shoot in the correct basket ideally in the program yeah okay no I feel good about this team I already feel good about it me and you and then you know whatever our other three starting five will be and then

[00:02:46] against some listeners like you said we get to select who they are so if you're listening to this and if you're shorter than six foot call us you know we're definitely going to yeah we'll have the basketball game set up if you have an astigmatism or something like that any physical ailments of disabilities please sign up for the basketball game so that Gia and I can beat you. Yeah barely you know that's the goal.

[00:03:07] I think in the Jersey I think that is what I will bring to the team yeah I think that's the one problem we would have is that then we like I think we you and I would get caught up on the things that don't matter you know like okay the basketball game.

[00:03:18] We wouldn't need to have color coordinated Jersey like it just needs to happen. Yeah entrance music as well you know it'd be a whole thing you know I do think right exactly we're here we're showing and if nothing goes.

[00:03:29] Exactly we will look at doing it that is the most important thing listen you ain't never lied.

[00:03:36] No one like the best loser I'm sorry.

[00:03:38] Exactly you might look if you go win winning style and if you can lose lose even better you know that's I agree this was a fun intro to the episode definitely something that I wasn't expecting you know it's just seeing to reek even as the person who set this up being that he is over the parent teacher with the pto or whatever he's he's the liaison he's the head of it and he's using us as a

[00:04:06] fundraiser but he's not raising any funds. He even said he had to rent the gym but I thought that that's not the way it happened.

[00:04:13] I am not sure what what he meant by rent the gym like did they have to like did Ava charge him just because yeah like that that makes more sense but I don't know I'm very confused why

[00:04:30] like why they had to rent the gym they have to pay a DJ which is like I don't know why a DJ is necessary to a basketball game but I trust the process.

[00:04:40] I'm pretty sure Mr Johnson was the DJ you know I'm just gonna say I'm having some issues here with this whole setup for the basketball game but we'll get to it thank you all again for listening to recap kickback for leaving your reviews five star views only we're always accepting those comments talk talk to us about the show we love that kind of stuff because we love

[00:04:57] that elementary we love seeing these characters and and seeing these actors really shining these roles and so in episode three I'm sorry season three episode seven we got the librarian season three episode eight we got panel

[00:05:10] and these are two different vibes of episodes but a lot of fun in both of them let's let's just go ahead and just jump right into it we kind of talked about the basketball game but prior to that one I guess one of the headlines that I've been dying to talk to you about is that Melissa needs a roommate

[00:05:26] and she has found one and she uh I don't know man this might be one of my favorite pairs on average elementary where I didn't know we needed this it was so so and I believe I asked this question last episode recap that we did but it just seemed crazy to me that in the span of

[00:05:47] we're on episode seven and eight now to like in six episodes maybe even five I can't remember when the breakup was but um we had two main couples and Abba elementary breakup was uh um

[00:06:04] Melissa and Gary broke up in the premiere and then a couple episodes later uh Jacob and Zach breakup which I really was not expecting and it just seemed all happening very quickly

[00:06:15] and then on top of all of that we had the uh I put a period on that Gregory yeah life right there but so it just seemed like we had a lot of breakups going into this season like very early in the season

[00:06:29] I don't know how many episodes were expecting from season three but it just all happened very fast and no idea why they felt they needed to do it all so quickly

[00:06:39] but now it's all coming together like my little my cronks voice is coming in there it's like oh I see what they're doing here this is amazing um for those that aren't sure exactly what we're talking about

[00:06:53] Jacob is the roommate of Melissa now she was uh looking for a non-serial killer that wants a cozy nook with a view of Philly and she found one in Jacob

[00:07:08] and at first it seems like this is just a disaster waiting for half to happen here but it's kind of an incredible duo right now

[00:07:17] yeah this is perfect this I cannot think of a better situation you're right I think they had to break Gary and and and Zach up out of this you know to kind of free Jacob and Melissa to explore the friendship

[00:07:30] we talked about this a little bit yeah where there's certain pairings that you just know you're gonna get fired every time

[00:07:35] and avid's really playing around with some of those those uh you know combinations uh we see that you know Jacob and Gregory are kind of a duo you know we've seen them in different roles

[00:07:47] Jacob's really pushing that on Gregory as well like hey and Gregory's inviting it they're very they're very good friends at this point

[00:07:53] but we rarely see just Jacob and Melissa I actually don't think we've ever seen just the two of them without maybe like Barbara or something as a

[00:08:01] as a proxy no I just seen I've been rewatching season two lately and I can't the only thing I can think of is when it was uh like the parent teacher

[00:08:14] conferences and Jacob kind of like swindles her and mr. Johnson out of uh

[00:08:20] money but mr. Johnson is also there I don't remember too many of them were just Jacob and Melissa and I

[00:08:26] wondering if that was something that the writers picked up on and realized maybe if they're already planning to break up

[00:08:33] these couples anyway why not uh make a fun new duo out of it yeah I mean it works if you think about it

[00:08:42] if we've never really gotten Jacob and Melissa on screen it makes sense for this storyline too because

[00:08:47] we see that Jacob and Melissa are actually gonna be great roommates together they like the same shows

[00:08:52] they like the same food they they have the same opinions about certain things it's like okay there's

[00:08:57] time they're really bonding but it is throwing off the dynamic of the friend group to the max I mean

[00:09:03] everybody looks salty it can no one can figure out who they can throw jabs at you know what the dynamic

[00:09:09] is Ava even has the roast mr. Johnson and he doesn't take it well now this hurt a little bit

[00:09:13] I don't like see my favorite writer. Everyone needs to leave mr. Johnson alone what is he done to all of

[00:09:19] you right now like oh my god it was uh this was a rough couple of episodes for mr. Johnson I

[00:09:26] hate that they are doing this to our favorite um excellent acting by William Stanford Davis but on

[00:09:34] the other hand like leave him alone let him get a win in this season that's a good point you know

[00:09:41] mr. Johnson hasn't had a standalone storyline you know I don't I wonder I wonder when we're gonna

[00:09:46] start to just give give us give us what we're looking for you uh come on y'all Quinta you hear us

[00:09:52] come on stop it stop it give mr. Johnson an episode and double a cp image award winner yes yes

[00:10:00] that is flowers on the show and I think like the career day he was excellent he had a really funny

[00:10:06] end credit scene um in episode eight with the panel um but I want to see a little more of him

[00:10:13] like what is his like his his storyline this season so far it's just kind of been like he's

[00:10:19] getting invited to staff right and I don't like that I need him to get some friends I need him to

[00:10:24] kind of get more ingratiated into this into this teacher group because I feel like they're other

[00:10:28] ring mr. Johnson right now and I don't like it so uh I'm sure there'll be more of that to come but

[00:10:33] hopefully they the writers address it this season or we have to write you know we Wilson letters we

[00:10:37] will write strongly worded emails to Quinta Brunson yep exactly yeah demanding her presence on this

[00:10:42] podcast by the way that I'm just saying if we're gonna email her we might as well you know she might

[00:10:46] well show up but um I know you're listening just like you know just check your

[00:10:50] deal I was always saying listen Ava goes to trash talk Jacob and that's how mr. Johnson catches

[00:10:57] his straight but Gia I'm sorry I understand Ava a bit you know I know can run Ava you know

[00:11:06] we're pro Ava podcast we say that every week but she I just feel like the delicate balance is

[00:11:11] thrown off to where they it's very clear I guess this is not a secret alliance of people

[00:11:17] they're they're almost I will say they're parading it in front of them but you can't just be sitting

[00:11:22] around sending memes to two people in the same room as other people who does that's a dangerous game

[00:11:28] it's a dangerous game Gia and I'm sorry a j a Jacob had a very roast double shirt on he did he needs to

[00:11:36] be able to face the consequences of his actions without Melissa being there to protect him at every

[00:11:42] chance like it is fair game yeah she sent him up for failure you know she picked a shirt out for him

[00:11:48] and then you know but she did protect him but I just feel like if they're sitting around

[00:11:53] and you know if you've ever been in a group of people and you can tell two people are texting

[00:11:57] you like what are y'all talking about what is this what's going on give me the phone you know like

[00:12:00] give me give me these things I guess as an educator I felt that before because I'm like hey you kids

[00:12:05] give me the phones what are y'all doing but um even like in a friend group you know like

[00:12:09] you're giggling and you're giggling I want the meme I want to laugh you know so I kind of felt the

[00:12:14] other teachers on this one I'm not saying Jacob and Melissa got a breakup but at least let us in

[00:12:19] on y'all on y'all shenanigans the rest of us want to play too I did enjoy that they were so kind

[00:12:26] of wrapped up in their little world that they were convinced that they were throwing off the entire

[00:12:31] ecosystem of avid elementary and maybe for a few days they were however every but I think like

[00:12:39] once we get to this story our conclusion of this episode with them both admitting to everybody

[00:12:44] that their friends they're going like everyone's kind of whatever about it they're happy the roommate

[00:12:51] situations working out but again the only white-on-white friendship that we are truly invested in

[00:12:58] the success of is Ben and Jerry's so there's you know there's only so much we can do here I think the

[00:13:04] avid ecosystem is a little stronger than maybe Jacob and Melissa are giving it credit for it was off

[00:13:10] balance for a bit but it'll bounce right back well okay look not to jump around too much but

[00:13:16] I'll challenge you on that during episode eight we see that Jacob and Melissa's friendship is still

[00:13:22] front of mind for many people because Jacob and Melissa they're single and they're meeting and it

[00:13:31] seemed like everybody's not as tapped in Gregory seems to know what's going on with Jacob Melissa

[00:13:36] doesn't know what's going on with Jacob Barbara doesn't know what's going on with Melissa and

[00:13:44] yeah she doesn't have to have to have to have to have to have her text so she's missing everything but

[00:13:49] it seems like she would have gotten the news about Jacob but there's some secrets going around now when

[00:13:54] this friendship became okay this is the hook-up house yeah how did you feel about this storyline because

[00:13:58] our girls are single now I'm obsessed with it I love it I love it so much I let now listen I know

[00:14:06] I've been saying I want Janine to be in her whole era for a little bit just for a little bit because

[00:14:12] she's single and she has the right and she was with the same man for like a million years however

[00:14:18] I will take this secondary because maybe Janine is just not that type of person and that's fine but

[00:14:25] there are other people on the cast that are this type of person and they deserve to be in their

[00:14:31] whole era as well and as much as I understand Barbara being upset about her not getting the tea

[00:14:42] as often as you know like Jacob and Janine and everybody but like come on it's Barbara you know

[00:14:50] like is she really seeing like the type of person that's going to want to hear about

[00:14:56] the like the hook-up that you're having like it's just sex Barbara I especially again she was

[00:15:03] just celebrating her anniversary her and Gerald are all happy all the time

[00:15:06] you need single friends to gossip with about that and also though like I don't think Jacob would know

[00:15:17] if he wasn't living with Melissa and the fireman Ada cereal like you know that's just I don't

[00:15:23] think Melissa I think Jacob found out because of circumstance that he happens to just be in the

[00:15:30] living facilities yeah um I mean we haven't really talked about it but Melissa we see you with

[00:15:37] the captain over there we we called it we did there's some chemistry you know she loves a fire

[00:15:42] fighter and it shows and also I did recently I said I was rewatching season two I got to the fire

[00:15:49] episode and he is the same captain in that same captain so they they knew what they were doing

[00:15:54] bringing this man back I see you Kurt Hummel's dad Michael Malley I see you um yeah I support

[00:16:02] this relationship though see that's the thing Gea as much as I would love to be like yeah Melissa

[00:16:06] do your thing you know being the streets I kind of like them together you know she's like it's

[00:16:12] casual I'm like what does it have to be go ahead and link link up I like this here here's my thing

[00:16:18] I think that it could potentially like they both seem pretty good with this relationship right now

[00:16:25] as it is right and even at the end when uh Melissa like cancels her plans with him to go out with

[00:16:34] barbruns of like that he seems like he is totally fine with it does not care he'll text your Monday

[00:16:41] all the good stuff but like I think this is more the vibe that Melissa is looking for

[00:16:47] and I think I'm not ruling out that this could eventually turn into um becoming something more

[00:16:54] serious and I think maybe that's a good start when uh Melissa first got with Gary he was you know

[00:17:01] like he was more serious right away and look how that turned out for it and maybe this is kind of

[00:17:07] more the vibe that Melissa needs from a long-term partner that eventually they are you know if they

[00:17:13] do decide to go the route that they're gonna be more serious they'll you know they'll still be

[00:17:18] more casual about it they're probably not gonna he's not gonna be wanting to get married or anything

[00:17:23] like that and that might be more the vibe that we need for our girl Melissa here so I'm not ruling out

[00:17:28] that this could eventually turn into something a little more serious okay so that means we're

[00:17:35] we're out on Gary he's done we're done with him I mean I would still like Gary to return as like

[00:17:42] a special guest every once in a while but I don't I after the proposal that Melissa didn't want

[00:17:49] I was kind of already out on them as a couple like I don't think they're getting back together at any

[00:17:55] point and I think that's kind of a perfect ending for their relationship they for split

[00:18:01] animically but they very much want different things right and that's okay you know no no need to force

[00:18:07] it but yeah I do miss Zach and seeing Jacob moving on I don't know how feel I don't know how

[00:18:15] feel about him sorry okay okay I do listen I the my problem is that I love Zach as a character like

[00:18:24] I loved Tyreek as a character but we can still get Zach without Jacob being in there and another

[00:18:32] thing that I realized rewatching season two which has been like a really great filler episode we

[00:18:38] got a decent amount of Zach but not a lot of his scenes were actually with Jacob like even in

[00:18:45] like Valentine's Day episode his arc was more with Eva and you know he was spending he had more

[00:18:53] scenes with her than Jacob so I think I don't know if they were planning for them to break up in

[00:18:59] season three at that point if like that was like they have like a full arc plan for these characters

[00:19:05] but I do kind of think that like Zach is a character that stands up on his own and a lot of

[00:19:11] his best scenes are not actually with Jacob so he volunteers as a music teacher we could definitely

[00:19:17] be getting him in the mix of like semi regular guests like how we get Tyreek every couple episodes

[00:19:24] in there like they know what they have with the magic of Tyreek there that man is not going away

[00:19:29] anytime soon no every time he pops up I'm like what because he goes from being the person who organized

[00:19:38] the fundraiser basketball game that they lost a bunch of money and paid Mr. Johnson to be the DJ

[00:19:42] and rented a gym and abbot it's just it was a lot going on here for three but now in the second

[00:19:48] episode panel he is the moderator of the panel and also I guess the referee and scorekeeper because

[00:19:55] this panel has now become a competition show and I have been to plenty of panel I'm sure you

[00:20:01] have as well being that we work on in the same realm and the show was making some points

[00:20:07] the panels do be feeling like who can get up there and say like the like the nice little sound by

[00:20:15] and sit yeah you know it really I don't know how much substance comes from those panels it feels

[00:20:20] like you're just kind of listening to people flex a little bit at least that's from my experience

[00:20:24] and so I appreciate it I've been presenting it like that yeah it's very much a uh I think when

[00:20:32] you get to certain types of panels especially panels about very serious topics like the public school

[00:20:40] system of Philly um it does seem like it's a bit about like a grandstanding contest like who can say

[00:20:48] the most beautiful nothing and yeah I it feels very um like empty like very vapid until we start

[00:21:00] actually looking into like what can we actually do about this stuff like yes it's great for uh

[00:21:07] Tatiana Lee to be saying the children are the future but like what are we actually doing to

[00:21:14] solidify these children's futures for a greater purpose I don't it it does get a little bit like that

[00:21:22] like it's nice to get a day off from work but also like at what cost right right and I think

[00:21:28] another thing is that a lot of these panels be for the people by the people as well right so it's

[00:21:34] like a panel of educators talking to educators you don't have to tell me uh that we're underfunded

[00:21:39] and then you know parent involvement is at a low and then you know all these other we know

[00:21:45] we all work together so yeah I saw the same thing you saw right you should be bringing in people

[00:21:51] from outside telling us how to fix this and a lot of times it's just like tell us what you would

[00:21:56] you consider what work for you it's like yeah we know this kind of stuff is like if it wasn't

[00:22:01] worked for me I would be doing it go get somebody who does every pamphlet of every school you could

[00:22:07] possibly have in the entire United States like we are well aware of all of this now what are we

[00:22:14] actually going to be doing to like finding solutions in there and I kind of do wish that more panels

[00:22:19] were like competitions or being able to like one another um issues because like what also

[00:22:26] are we doing this panel for if not to exchange ideas or to be a little competitive with one another

[00:22:33] right like I said there's been some some panels that I've sat in and I've learned a lot but a lot

[00:22:38] of times it's when the person has like I have no clue what the person's field is or they came in

[00:22:43] they have a completely different experience than I've had so I'm like oh yeah I'll be happy to sit

[00:22:47] here and listen but if it's Ava school and it versus Tatiana R Lee school and we'll get to that in just

[00:22:54] a second it's like two schools competing and talking about what schools do is like yeah we know

[00:22:58] what the other schools do I wish I could work there or I'm glad I don't work there you know but

[00:23:01] a lot of times you're sitting there thinking this is not something that's feasible for my institution

[00:23:06] or this is something that if I tried to bring to the table it would get shot down because we

[00:23:10] ain't got no money you know and so um more of that conversation to come but speaking of money

[00:23:16] dear Ava got money okay Ava Elementary we talked about this we got we got money this season

[00:23:24] we got J.L. Harris we got Bradley Cooper we've mentioned Tatiana Ali we got Chris Summer

[00:23:30] Chris Dealer we got Chris Summer literally if you think you do not know who Chris Summer is

[00:23:37] yes you do yes you do yes you do she was voiced every black character that has ever existed

[00:23:44] at least once before at least what at least one um I am such a huge fan of her I was so excited

[00:23:52] when I heard because they announced um I believe it was Tatiana Ali Chris Summer and Keegan

[00:23:58] Michael Keag at the same time as like they're gonna be on future episodes I didn't realize

[00:24:03] there were all gonna be like back-to-back episodes together but it was like with lash I'm like oh my

[00:24:09] god they got money money money and they um but Chris Summer as the librarian was genius she was

[00:24:19] so good this episode she and I think they did a really good choice here with uh giving her a

[00:24:26] character that does voices like reading out loud to the kids and everything it was just it was

[00:24:32] perfect casting um I don't expect her to be like on multiple times or become like a regular

[00:24:41] character but I would love for her to be kind of like in the mix as a

[00:24:47] abbot like a a regular staff member if that makes sense like when we start getting those big meetings

[00:24:52] she's there or starting it because I kind of missed that like I feel like we got a lot more

[00:24:58] last season of the of like the cafeteria worker the nurses the other staff members and I think

[00:25:07] part of it is just because of the strike but we haven't gotten a ton of that this season and I

[00:25:11] hope it changes soon because I missed that it missed the interactions with the other Abbott staff

[00:25:18] yeah but if you're if you're right and we get crease summer just periodically throughout this show

[00:25:23] I just it's like how could you make this show better you throw crease summer in it and uh

[00:25:28] it was this is a great storyline it like you said she was perfect casting for this so the idea is

[00:25:34] that we know Janine has been trying to get across her librarian program she's come up with his idea

[00:25:39] where she goes and she wants um to have the libraries in schools they want to have them like

[00:25:45] stock with an actual librarian because imagine that libraries need librarians as per Gregory's quote um

[00:25:52] but they were gonna go to the sub colleges get some library studies students to come and do these jobs

[00:25:58] and in the first of these two episodes we see this program in action as crease summer is hired

[00:26:04] as the librarian the kids love her because what kid does not like crease summer it's just impossible

[00:26:11] I'm sorry Barbara I love you the deaf but that I'm sorry she raised she just won't be raised me

[00:26:17] you know what I'm saying I don't know what to tell you this is an actual they're like this is

[00:26:21] actually my second mother here like you know that but yeah Barbara's like a cool auntie but like

[00:26:28] when crease summer comes in when creelies and barber can be my mama again but not right now uh

[00:26:33] it's so she's been furloughed for the time being just for a little bit and she can tell I think

[00:26:37] in this episode it's very clear that we've seen this before where Barbara she doesn't she's not the

[00:26:43] the most susceptible to change right when someone comes in and says oh I have this new fancy way of

[00:26:48] doing something a lot of times with technology and stuff Barbara's like no that's not gonna work

[00:26:53] and sometimes Barbara's right we saw with um Barbara and Melissa were putting their foot down against

[00:27:00] the landmark you know conversation like we don't need that you know there's several things

[00:27:04] that Janine will be like we gotta have this stuff at Abbott and they're like no Abbott has

[00:27:08] what Abbott needs we just need to be the best for Abbott but sometimes Barbara is wrong and when

[00:27:13] it happens I think that's another thing that just does not suit the ecosystem well because Barbara is

[00:27:19] wrong this entire episode she wants to shut down the librarian program she doesn't want to well

[00:27:24] I don't know she wants to shut it down she just doesn't want to be involved in any of the rules or

[00:27:27] regulations of the program she doesn't want to do appointments she wants to check out whatever she

[00:27:32] wants to check out she wants to come and go when she wants to go this was probably not one like

[00:27:38] not my favorite Barbara episode yeah I mean I think this is a really great example of

[00:27:46] sometimes our favorite characters are not right I think everybody that all of the main cast members

[00:27:51] have been wrong at least one but I think Barbara's kind of the natural enemy of a program like this

[00:27:59] where beforehand she was able to pick out books whenever she wanted and be able to use the library

[00:28:06] whenever she would like but it the library wasn't getting a lot of use it wasn't reaching its full

[00:28:11] potential of like what the actual use of a library is for because if you go to a public library

[00:28:19] you can't just go out grab the books you want and leave you know you have to there's steps in there

[00:28:25] and that's the good thing about having a librarian here so I did I think this was a really effective

[00:28:33] use of Barbara's character but yeah she was not right a single time in the episode except for

[00:28:37] like that last two minutes when we read her review yeah she ate that one little thing you know

[00:28:45] yeah um you're right Barbara this just doesn't sit her sit well with her because she's just used to

[00:28:50] doing things the way that she used to do in them I used to work in an institution I worked there for

[00:28:54] six years well that's like five or six years but I worked there and in higher it's a lot of turnover

[00:29:00] and so by year three I was like a senior staff member and by year five I could do whatever I wanted

[00:29:07] it's like no no I'll call the office oh you need an override for that it's fine I'll just do it

[00:29:11] in everybody's like oh he's got it she's got it like no one questioned it then I switched institutions

[00:29:17] and I was like wait I gotta do it everybody else is doing I gotta first of all I have to be at my

[00:29:21] desk all day I can't just wander around talking to all my friends you know it was it was very much

[00:29:25] a change that I wasn't ready for and I like it so I totally understand what Barbara was talking

[00:29:30] about here but Janine's program seems like a good one crease summer is amazing the kids love him

[00:29:35] and like you said she does voices now this is a fight that Barbara does not know that she was always

[00:29:41] going to lose if you got Barbara versus crease summer doing voices Dia you just you brought a knife

[00:29:50] to a gun site any any voice actor any actor going against crease summer in a voice it's just going

[00:29:58] to lose I'm sorry yeah I cannot tell me a more iconic voice actor please I beg you you can

[00:30:07] Jeff so limit does not exist you're gonna lose and it's gonna be embarrassing that you thought

[00:30:12] that you weren't gonna lose there yeah yeah because Crea is just a better dresser than you

[00:30:18] either so it's like what was the point man I was loving that for real hat you know the big Arby's hat

[00:30:23] I was kind of I was like I was kind of feeling it too I knew like that they mentioned the hat in

[00:30:27] like the very beginning of their like they they made sure the hat was known I mean you could

[00:30:33] it miss it right um Barbara can do voices as well she's not like I'm I'm sure it was a story of

[00:30:38] the tortoise in the hair but it was very Jamaican I caught that um but again crease summer that's

[00:30:44] number five baby you know I can't I can't unhear it you know I'm sorry you know so

[00:30:49] from Atlanta says like that's all yeah there's just there's too many there's too many things

[00:30:55] you know I'm just saying storm at one point yeah I'm pretty sure if she wasn't storm she needs to be

[00:31:01] you know yeah yeah the voice of a generation this lady is I'm sorry she just is um so that's it

[00:31:11] you know eventually Barbara comes around uh Janine has to stand up for herself because Gregory is

[00:31:18] insisting that she realizes that you can Barbara can be wrong and you can speak up for what is right

[00:31:22] here Gregory underrated storyline he loves a good library he loves organization and this might have

[00:31:29] been his favorite moment since he started working at it because he was like librarians are good

[00:31:36] for libraries libraries need books books are good at Barbara's bad Barbara's wrong get get into it

[00:31:43] um I'm glad he said it yeah oh yeah and uh Gregory is also a big nerd for organization so seeing

[00:31:50] the books actually finally organized in a way that makes sense was just like the cherry on top of

[00:31:57] this whole storyline get Gregory told purpose this episode was to just geek out about the fact

[00:32:04] that they finally have a functioning library and he does it so well this is like peak Gregory right here

[00:32:11] but he's also able to help Janine towards the end of the episode where she really feels like she has

[00:32:16] to choose between Barbara or like given to Barbara's demands really versus a program that's actually

[00:32:25] working for everybody else besides Barbara and make her realize just because Barbara

[00:32:31] means so much to you and has been like that person to help mentor you that does not mean that like

[00:32:39] she also can't be wrong especially for an instance like this where it seems to be working for

[00:32:44] everybody but her um Janine telling Barbara she was wrong and then running away that was classic Janine

[00:32:51] she's like she couldn't even stand in that moment she had to go Barbara also telling Janine that her

[00:32:56] office hour uh was not until next week um she ate she also ate that one little crumb there do I

[00:33:02] forgot about that but yes she said it's it's not until next week and also it's for students

[00:33:08] and you're not a student I was like oh look okay Barbara you know okay Barbara I see you

[00:33:15] I see you did um back to the money episode two we see that they are um they are having to do uh

[00:33:26] you know some professional development they have to go get their CPR training uh Janine has

[00:33:31] to do that but she also kind of wants to be at the panel and she has to have a conversation with

[00:33:35] the superintendent because her program it does not have the backing from the universities that

[00:33:41] they thought it would have and so without that they cannot afford librarians and so it will get

[00:33:47] squashed um so she needs to go see Kig and Micro Key we got money Jim yeah Kig and Micro Key

[00:33:54] as a superintendent who does it we got money here at Abbott the show for Abbott the school

[00:34:00] the school district Abbott's in they don't got a money. They this this was so good this was this

[00:34:09] was a great pick for in over Zellia's super intended here because they asked the important questions

[00:34:15] is it free because they like free and unfortunately because they are so focused on it being free

[00:34:23] um it is not tempting to a lot of these institutions to make it part of their regular program

[00:34:29] it just not meets a accreditation that they need for people within those programs so other than the

[00:34:37] experience it doesn't necessarily have like full what's the word for it like it does not have like

[00:34:44] the appeal that they're hoping it would for the people supplying the librarians in there so

[00:34:50] that's where they're really coming to uh crossroads with this program yeah eventually Janine will have

[00:34:58] to go to I mean it's a dirty word but community college to get some volunteers for this and

[00:35:07] this is so funny to me I've worked at community college before community colleges are amazing

[00:35:13] they're great for people yeah I actually went to community college for my first year of um

[00:35:20] of college like my just going from uh my high school into college we did my first year there

[00:35:27] and it was a great experience it definitely made me have a lot more respect for community colleges

[00:35:32] but the professors there are amazing you can meet a lot of different people make a lot of different

[00:35:38] friends it's kind of it's almost kind of like an introduction to the workplace because like I had no

[00:35:43] business having my bestie in like intro to public speaking being like a 50 year old woman but

[00:35:48] here I am doing that damn thing and it's just it's great to have like that mixed experience in there

[00:35:56] it's such a fun time it was really cool to like meet all of the different people different professors

[00:36:02] there um and yeah so it was kind of an incredible experience so I'm really glad that they do

[00:36:09] make the connection between like yeah like our school system doesn't get a lot of attention

[00:36:15] community colleges doesn't have a lot of attention so like let's let's go let's go check this out

[00:36:21] see what they're about and man he went to community college as well yeah um you're 100% correct

[00:36:28] community colleges are amazing and they're affordable take it take it from the the educators on this

[00:36:33] panel it's the two of us we're telling you the community colleges are worth it they're affordable a

[00:36:38] lot of times people don't know this but a lot of times the same professors that work at community

[00:36:42] college they work at the big four year school down the street too because they don't make a lot

[00:36:45] of money and so they will go and teach adjunct classes at the community college too so you're probably

[00:36:51] getting the same professor you would get at the other school anyway you're just paying a fraction

[00:36:55] of the cost and a lot of times you can just ease into the college experience as opposed to getting

[00:37:00] thrown in completely take a couple classes community college before you start school maybe uh

[00:37:06] you know during the winters take a mini master maybe a summer semester it'll save so much money

[00:37:11] because think about it you could pay um hundreds of thousands of dollars essentially to take

[00:37:18] the same basic classes you can take at a community college for a fraction of the cost and you

[00:37:23] you're degree at the end of the day it will still say that you went to the school that you graduated

[00:37:27] from it's not going to say um you know i went to pin by way of this other community like no one cares

[00:37:34] no one cares that you got your first you know 30 credit from a community college when you want

[00:37:40] you have your degree no one's looking at that so yeah it's just the move to make i like that the show

[00:37:45] addresses that it's like almost like oh you know it's kind of like oh the community college is even saying

[00:37:49] we don't get this kind of attention people normally ignore us but we would love these opportunities

[00:37:54] yeah i don't know the actor that played the it was like the vice president of the community college

[00:37:59] uh yeah yeah but he was so good here in his little uh zoom call that he was included on but he

[00:38:07] he seemed like just genuinely excited it was this was a great choice for it i hope we get to see more

[00:38:13] of him here too yeah i thought because the way he was approaching the conversation i thought he was

[00:38:17] about to tell us something about the community college that was like bad he's like oh people don't

[00:38:22] call our school and i was thinking oh no it's not a community college it's a correctional

[00:38:26] facility or something like that where they take classes and he's but it turned out no community college

[00:38:31] is just a dirty word for a lot of people they don't like to talk about it it's a it's a people

[00:38:35] people who look down on community college is really about status it has nothing to do with the

[00:38:39] education that you can get from a community college it's really that you just like some form of

[00:38:43] elitism where you're like i'm too good to go to this school when in reality anything that could save

[00:38:48] you some money in uh in the world of education i say go with it as long as you're you're a credit

[00:38:53] transfer you know yeah if you can use the credits go get them um the other the other for like the

[00:39:00] other two people have to talk about when it comes to money um tahti anali we've we've skated around

[00:39:05] it several times and uh brand and cow good men are in this show and uh tahti anali i'll get

[00:39:12] turned a second brand and cow good men uh is another voice yeah rich a tile which is a great name

[00:39:20] is uh another voice actor people might know them from big mouth or human resources uh so i was

[00:39:26] happy to see brand and cow good men here in person because we just went from crease summer's voice

[00:39:31] you know i mean don't give her all people know crease summer as the actress as well but she's best

[00:39:35] known probably for her voice uh i would say the same thing about branding cow good men but tahti anali

[00:39:41] shows up jee my mouth was on the floor i was not prepared it is Ashley Ashley banks is here what

[00:39:49] i have nothing i i again i'm other person who i grew up with they're really tapping into like childhood

[00:39:57] mm-hmm with these choices here and she was so good the entire i hated her so much

[00:40:04] yeah oh i know she was so good and as one of ava sorority sisters as well genius genius i think that

[00:40:13] it's not too often that we really see someone try to one up ava you know like people will say things

[00:40:20] behind her back they complain that she's not really doing what she's supposed to do and all of

[00:40:25] that stuff but we don't really see someone try to really challenge her so it's good to

[00:40:32] see her interact with somebody that knows her and is kind of like that that source of

[00:40:39] iron for her this episode especially since a few episodes ago we heard about

[00:40:44] ava dealing with some mean girls and her sorority yeah um i love this storyline because i feel like

[00:40:53] it feels real the ava's thesis here is basically this is my enemy we're in the same sorority so we

[00:41:01] have to be friends or at least frenemies at best yeah we're mortal enemies but the worst thing i can do

[00:41:08] is admit that i don't like this person do you have ever been in a situation like this oh yeah work

[00:41:14] we're all the time all the time not necessarily the job i'm at now but like there's a couple people

[00:41:21] in there but like if i let you know that you bother me i lose right i lose but i can make like

[00:41:29] sprinkle sprinkle in some little comments in there that i know will just throw you off your groove

[00:41:34] for the day and i know i've done my job yeah um ava ava is very much in competition with

[00:41:43] touch on at least character she is the shining star we know ava is really trying to be there but

[00:41:49] this woman has tried to one up ava ever since they were in the sorority she even became a principal

[00:41:53] before ava just to spite ava the nerve yeah absolutely disgusting and so by the end of the panel

[00:42:01] i mean throughout the episode ava school ava school is losing avid is not keeping up on the panel

[00:42:06] Gregory and ava were not prepared for a competition they did not know there would be scores taken

[00:42:12] um but touch on all these school that's what they came here to do they came here to win this

[00:42:17] other battle they came in to score the most points they came into dunk and that's what they're doing

[00:42:21] and so and i again i love that they made the twins be that they are actually judging a panel

[00:42:28] so that when or like they are actually scoring the panel kind of informally but like Tariq doesn't

[00:42:33] know what he's doing so it's kind of perfect and they had a jenine and jayke up come at the very end

[00:42:40] and wondering why they're keeping score at a panel however i do think that this was a little bit of ill

[00:42:48] you know i don't like to speak ill of ava but i think if she went in knowing that this was a uh

[00:42:55] this was a one-up off um of like who can kiss the most ass at a panel uh i think she is way better off

[00:43:03] picking somebody like molissa or jayke up some of them that will take it like very personally to go

[00:43:11] and try to one up the other people there versus someone like Gregory who yes he was the teacher of

[00:43:15] the year last year but in terms of like he even says at this episode he's talking about how

[00:43:21] he's not he's not a grandstander he is someone he's like a they ask me a question i won't answer it

[00:43:27] and that is very much who he is it has no plans of changing it and you know he is he competitive yes but

[00:43:35] in the way that like ava needs him to be competitive here no because Gregory i don't think can really lie

[00:43:42] yeah and ava ava likes to lie she loves it actually and so when they ask her a question

[00:43:48] yeah she goes above and beyond grandstanding but she doesn't really say anything a lot of times these

[00:43:54] questions aren't even directed at ava she just feels like she needs to step in and so Gregory tells her

[00:43:58] hey how about you don't say anything and ava says okay well how about you grandstand a little bit

[00:44:03] and so Gregory goes in and he starts saying phrases like if you balance your breakfast your balance

[00:44:09] your blessings and it gets no response because he's not saying anything of substance until

[00:44:17] gea the king shows up bister bonson from babbit elementary

[00:44:24] ask ava a question about her extracurriculars on campus the steptie the garden club etc

[00:44:31] yeah we haven't really talked about it but this season in matter of fact since season one

[00:44:36] for ava to be underfunded and to be painted as a school that is just doing the best what they have

[00:44:42] there were a lot of cool stuff for the kids because i didn't even realize of those two things the

[00:44:47] stepteam the garden club the podcast club there was there's so much going on at the habit they need

[00:44:52] to be able to flex a little bit yeah and there really are like some extra things that you wouldn't

[00:44:57] be able to find at other places here and we know them as like fun side plots for the purpose of

[00:45:05] the show like the whole jacobin barb rubbing bat at gardening but really enjoying it and Gregory

[00:45:12] with his experience needing to fix everything and it just turned into like a reoccurring

[00:45:18] story within like the avid elementary lore here and i love that they're still bringing those things

[00:45:26] up because this is a lot of opportunities here that we don't necessarily like that are not at other

[00:45:33] schools but it really underlies the antithesis of the show which is like the thesis of the show

[00:45:40] which is basically like they do a whole lot with a whole lot of nothing.

[00:45:47] yeah and for some reason ava and Gregory they missed that they don't think about that when they come

[00:45:53] in because for them it's just normal this is just normal habit task you know we have the stepteam

[00:45:59] because the kids needed something to do after school and ava is a person who steps and so she made it

[00:46:04] happen you know it was like we just did it Gregory in the garden and you know even with the kids coming

[00:46:09] to his classroom he's like cool teacher he has to open his classroom because the kids need a place

[00:46:13] to hang out mr. Johnson is the one who had to tell them hey we're not about grandstanding we have

[00:46:18] things here avid's a good school and i was like look at my boy look at him just they've been so

[00:46:24] rude to him this season though i mean look at him carrying the season already carrying this whole

[00:46:29] institution on his back yeah they give him his things y'all quinta give him his things um

[00:46:36] this does throw touchy on ava's character off balance a little bit she starts grandstanding but to me

[00:46:42] it wasn't hitting the same after this because i think she said something like oh my school that we

[00:46:48] have a daycare program because learning knows no age and i was like what does that even mean

[00:46:52] what do you mean a daycare at a school wait so like is she at an elementary school as well

[00:46:57] yeah is she saying like we just have like like literally a daycare in the school or is it

[00:47:03] like they have like kids that are too young to go to be to school there they have like a

[00:47:09] baby like an actual daycare you're just letting little kids like run around like run around at school

[00:47:16] okay that's fine yeah this it this isn't give us about it and i turned out great but i was at someone's

[00:47:23] house i didn't need to go to a legendary charter to go to take care miss Ali yeah this is i don't like this

[00:47:30] i was like oh okay i need more information i've worked at schools that had daycare but this

[00:47:34] because their kids was grown and they had children the kids had kids this does not sound like that

[00:47:41] eventually uh crystal will admit defeat i mean not even on purpose but

[00:47:47] avicantel that crystal is hating on her success including more specifically the camera crew that

[00:47:53] we've been addressing a lot more this season as well so crystals like oh it's funny that you pay

[00:47:58] this camera crew to document your dealings that's cute and she kind of looks down her nose at it

[00:48:03] before ava says oh no they they call us they wanted to follow our greatness and i glow up so get into

[00:48:09] it and so ava wins this fight yeah oh yeah especially when she i love this this end line she say if

[00:48:17] she didn't have a three beautiful children and a husband at home she could accomplish so much more

[00:48:23] which all ava hears from that is ava has done more you know yeah she could do more if she was like

[00:48:31] ava but she is not like ava she chose to get married and have children and ava is above that

[00:48:36] she is accomplishing all of these other things her staff is sexy she's not even talking about

[00:48:42] Gregory when she says this she said uh Barbara Melissa Janine on a good day you know she had to throw

[00:48:50] that in there she did yeah um but she's not wrong she's not wrong avid look at the very attractive

[00:48:56] i figured ava would be picking staff based on attractiveness so this is you know like she knows who

[00:49:04] her favorites are and she she has good reason for that yeah um the last little bit of the storyline

[00:49:11] that we haven't really talked about is the CPR training Janine has to do it in order to be a teacher

[00:49:16] she has to have that renewed and i think this is more of us seeing obviously some shenanigans

[00:49:23] you know we love seeing people do CPR training before that people talk about that other show that

[00:49:27] has an iconic CPR episode as well uh we won't mention his name we said it enough on this podcast but

[00:49:33] here we get some similar shenanigans uh but more importantly i think the thing that stood out to me was

[00:49:38] that throughout the season we have been outlining that Janine kind of misses avid you know she's not

[00:49:44] tapped in on the on the gossip the drama um she misses her kids i don't know do you think she makes

[00:49:52] it through this entire season without uh coming back home i don't know i think the season is

[00:49:59] and again i don't know how many episodes we have this season i don't even know if it's been like

[00:50:05] confirmed oh i think it is hold on i'll look at it at one time um so but i think this season is going to

[00:50:13] end with Janine ending the fellowship but i'm wondering if it's going to be because she completed it

[00:50:18] because i think it's for like six months or if she's going to drop out along the way and i hope

[00:50:26] it's not that one i hope it's just she completes it and just has a new appreciation for

[00:50:32] her position as a teacher and that like that's really where she feels like she belongs similar to

[00:50:37] how the first season Gregory's really realizes that like to be a principal he has to really develop

[00:50:43] an understanding of uh school system and what the teachers do on a day-to-day basis um so i do think

[00:50:52] that there's like a purpose for it i'm curious to see how that whole part ends

[00:50:58] yeah from what i can tell Abbott is going to have only 14 episodes this season yeah so we're already

[00:51:05] past the halfway point as of this podcast and yeah i could see both of those things happening for

[00:51:10] sure i can definitely see Janine being like i just need to come on with my kids i miss it

[00:51:15] that uh but i want that i really want her to be able to immerse herself in this experience become a

[00:51:20] better educator and then take some of the stuff that she got from the district back to Abbott

[00:51:26] and now that i think about it i'm sure i'm sure we'll get a version of that you know they really

[00:51:31] lean into the the district storyline very early on like in the first episode it was very important

[00:51:38] that Janine was going to do this but we have i mean aside from the library program we haven't seen a

[00:51:43] lot so maybe she just does the library and program gets it off the ground and she's known for that

[00:51:47] and this she comes home um the other part of the district that we haven't really talked about either is

[00:51:52] um manny an episode one and two it felt like manny was a potential love interest maybe for you know

[00:52:02] there were some longing glasses i don't really get that anymore are you still picking up on that or

[00:52:07] is that just me i i think there is some interest there but also there's a clear conflict of interest

[00:52:13] if manny was hooking up with that or made a move on the uh like fellowship perse the fellow that they

[00:52:24] picked for the fellowship here so and like realistically it just doesn't seem like that

[00:52:34] anything would happen while she's still in the fellowship but i want to be surprised if that's

[00:52:40] like the finale cliffhanger is like a manny confesses that i still i still think it could potentially

[00:52:51] be something i think that if it does it could be like if jenine leaves the fellowship at the end

[00:52:57] like that she you know she her timing is run out and she's planning on going back to

[00:53:04] abbot that that would be something that would be the time for manny to make a move if a move is to be made

[00:53:12] um manny would definitely be my office crush you know like not necessarily planning on doing

[00:53:17] anything about it but like they're there you know they're nice to look at so i don't know

[00:53:24] they're just like they're just two nerds like geeking out about the public school system so who knows

[00:53:31] you know who i miss where is morice bring us back mo you know what happened

[00:53:36] yes ma'am been staples has its own show now and it's just too big for us

[00:53:41] i know listen they got money but they don't have been staples show money and i kind of hate that

[00:53:47] i just want him back as like i don't even know what he do anymore but like as like just i want to

[00:53:53] know that like him and greggory are going to be able to be friends again and uh or have him return

[00:53:59] in some form i do miss mo though he was a fun he was a fun little date for the time being

[00:54:05] i miss mo and erica bring us more of our people yeah because we barely got i we got a mention of

[00:54:12] erica in the first episode where jenine was talking about her and um jay up in erica started going

[00:54:21] to brunch uh the brunch bunch um and we haven't really seen or heard from her since and i really miss

[00:54:30] erica i think if like all the characters we haven't seen this season yet i really need erica to come

[00:54:34] back at some point yeah you you brought up the righty strike earlier that's probably a part of it

[00:54:40] you know with this being a condensed season only having 14 episodes uh we don't get a lot of our

[00:54:45] our other tertiary characters outside of our core five like we used to but we're bringing in a lot

[00:54:51] of special guests and i'm and i'm loving it so keep that going i think the last little story line

[00:54:55] where you're gonna talk about is that Jacob has hooked up with multiple paramedics at this point uh

[00:55:00] jia and greggory knows all of them which is my favorite part about all of us is that greggory not

[00:55:08] only receives this information but he has processed it to where when uh jenine is talking about how

[00:55:15] jay up is hooking up with a paramedic he has to ask which one and knows them both my name

[00:55:20] yeah he's tapped in this is a good friendship it is a good friendship i love it so much

[00:55:25] greggory should probably advise Jacob not to hook up with paramedics on molissa's roof

[00:55:30] i would say that and also just like like there aren't other like fire stations around here like

[00:55:38] you guys are they're able to like compare notes with each other and talk about uh

[00:55:43] avi showing the fire captain is text but like look how coy he is and he's like that

[00:55:50] no one does that that's not a thing yeah well that's that's the interesting too the fire captain

[00:55:55] and avi being locked in i was like okay y'all got a friendship too i like i like all of us

[00:56:00] jay up in greggory of higher station yeah um which is interesting because we see avi at the end

[00:56:07] he tried he speaking of coy he he pulls a move um he basically tells jay up he's not invited to him

[00:56:16] with to what he know like he's like oh yeah i'm not coming with you to the panel that he wasn't

[00:56:20] even invited to yeah he's like he's like oh okay and for some reason that little bit of that move

[00:56:26] right there just really packed Jacob up because now jay goes like am i in love with this man

[00:56:30] you know just cuz he can we've been out his way to turn me down even though i was not asking to go

[00:56:35] out with him am i jay up and i jay up toxic all toxic i related i don't think i've ever

[00:56:44] related to jay up more than in that moment but like i see him i get what he's feeling right there

[00:56:50] but i know i i think avi he tried to one up him i i don't know i'm not feeling the jay

[00:56:58] up avi thing it's like a long-term thing i i think jay up is having fun being single and you know

[00:57:04] if we get some more guest stars is like jay up hookups over yeah the rest of this season i'd be happy

[00:57:11] but now that jay gets a single i just feel like there are so many possibilities for him i want like

[00:57:15] a teacher to come in that like we get like enemies to lovers or something or like some grand

[00:57:22] like love story outside of janean and greggery because he's been so supportive of the janean

[00:57:28] and greggery relationship and it's so funny to see that he's still on the janean and greggery

[00:57:34] train and that he is just waiting with all of us to see it happen but i also want some grand

[00:57:40] love story for jay up as well i want i want him to find his man and for it to be like

[00:57:48] like i want to be kicking my feet when it happens and just like be super excited for him so i hope we

[00:57:53] get to see more more for jay up in the upcoming seasons fingers crossed but jay up that's

[00:58:00] our two episodes so it was nice it was good it was good but abit has us on hiatus i think the next

[00:58:47] and haven't even been writing their own replies greggery turns to janean for help with their
